GADD45GIP1 polyclonal antibody

Q8TAE8

CRIF1, also known as GADD45GIP1, PLINP1, PRG6 or CKBBP2, is a 222 amino acid nuclear protein that plays a role in apoptosis control. Expressed in a variety of tissues, including heart, thyroid, trachea, kidney, ovary, pancreas, testis and stomach, CRIF1 functions as a negative regulator of G1 to S phase cell cycle production, specifically by working with GADD 45 proteins to inhibit the activity of cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks). While overexpression of CRIF1 results in cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase, downregulation of CRIF1 by p53 in apoptotic cells promotes cell cycle progression and may be an important factor in tumor growth and metastasis. CRIF1 is subject to phosphorylation by casein kinase II, an event that is thought to decrease CRIF1 activity and promote cellular proliferation. Human CRIF1 shares 90% homology with its mouse counterpart, suggesting a conserved role between species.

The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).

GADD45GIP1 pAb detects endogenous levels of GADD45GIP1 protein.
